Furthermore, the question that came to mind for me is who in Venezuela is in charge. Seems like with modern tech, he could still be president from a US jail. All the bills come through email (or where ever) and he could electronically sign them.
It seems likely to me that he did cheat his way into this last term, but its not something an external force should be adjudicating.
I would argue that the USSR is only the most responsible when looking at it through the loss of human life. It seems likely they would have never made it to Berlin without lend-lease. No one knows if the Germans could have regrouped and done better without the aid to the USSR, maybe the same number would have died, just in different locations. But, most of the USSR’s ability to move material around was due to the allies supplying them with logistics vehicles, both trucks, and railroads/engines/RR cars.
Quite the assumption to say someone directly participated in murder and torture, without knowing anything about them, or the job they had in the military. Coulda been a cook for all you know.
Murder is also a legal term, and supposing this person didn’t act outside of the RoE, wouldn’t have committed murder. Being a soldier in a warzone, that killed someone does not make you a murderer. I shall now await your post about how awful the US is, and that I’m such a terrible person.
I dont believe they’ve done what you claim, mainly due to Hu Jintao saying that its not true. I’m sure they’ve brought back a lot of the middle class that was destroyed in the civil war, but there is still a huge peasant population in China that is very much in poverty.
Is the pay per post still 50 cents, or has the govt increased that?
Get fucking real, China has solved none of the three you list. People still starve, housing just recently had a major economic impact, and while there are doctors everywhere working hard to fix people’s ailments, China’s hospital system in now incentivized to get repeat customers, not to fix the issues.
China still has distinct classes for their classless government. People in China call the lowest class peasants still. While Xi talks with Putin about how he can live forever with the help of other people’s organs.
Most of the current immigration laws are due to racist intent. In the 80s they didn’t like how many Mexicans were coming across the border each year to do farm work. The workers would come, stay while there was work to be had, and then return home. When new laws were enacted making it harder for workers to get across the border, there came a class of people that would sneak the workers across. And this came with a fee from the workers. Now it costs them more to get here, so they need to stay longer to make up the money. It became easier to just find a place to live in the US all year round.
The US needs the Mexican workers. To simultaneously demand help, and punish them for showing up to help is dumb, and I suspect fueled by racist thoughts. The immigrants boost our economy, help feed our population, and are less likely to break laws that citizens. There’s a whole (probably many) book about it, and it’s even in comic form. https://www.amazon.com/Open-Borders-Science-Ethics-Immigration/dp/1250316960
While we need to know who is coming across our border to prevent spys and terrorists, the current laws make those entrants easier to hide, as there is now a whole industry to sneak people across.
Cities are going to start looking like San Fransokyo (Big Hero 6) soon. Seems like an excellent idea though. If it really gets pursued, I wonder how it will interact with air travel, since I would imagine you would need no fly zones around these, at least at a certain height.
Friendly censorship of an inoffensive word. With the threat of being banned for flavor. SO friendly.
guarantees a regression to centrist parties
The US’s whole political system has been drifting rightward. Our center is more to the right than 20 years ago. So it does not matter if regression to center is happening as the center drifts into the fascist event horizon. Every possible “this is why it could never happen here” is possibly a single event away from being breached, then discarded. The US has had so many of our safety checks blown through, and the only people who can now prevent it have no desire to do so, because they’re on the same team.
I’m sure you will be vigilant, but it takes the whole country. And a person may be smart, but people are dumb, panicky animals.
Aren’t the royal sex workers? Isn’t their job to have sex and produce heirs so the cycle can continue? Country pimps them out to show up to events and smile, and then to go back home and continue the line.
This is neither a Russian or Soviet prosecutor. He didn’t ask about US prosecutors (which has a lot of terrible ones I’m sure).
I’ve never watched the dude, and prior to today, don’t know that I had heard the name. But how do his crimes change the fact that his research is thorough? All the person above you said is that he researches well, not sure how that would be a controversial opinion to have of someone. And if its not clear, im no fan of the dude, and if hes guilty hopes he’s put away.
Well, we did ask Afghanistan to turn over the planner, we didn’t really want to fight them. But they did want to fight, it seems. There was no excuse for Iraq. And I’m unsure of the other 6 you refer to.
And Saudi Arabia is a terrible ally, in every sense.
So, Diddy’s made a donation to Donny’s PAC. That’s the way it’s worked with so many other pardons anyway, naked corruption.

Not sure how well it works, buy my sister in law has them around her house.
Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses.
When a daddy pencil and a mommy cassette love each other very much…
Used to belong to a Homebrewing forum (beer, not computer servers), and they had monthly post about someone wanting to infuse their beer with tobacco. Which is where I learned that it will kill ya dead. Tobacco can be used externally to reduce swelling, chew on a wasp sting will prevent a lot of it. Or if you’re looking for trouble late in life I guess you could smoke it also, though that one seems a great deal less compelling to me.
Re-iterate - Don’t eat any food made with tobacco, it will harm you at the very least.
“Father Abraham had many dumbs, and many dumbs had father Abraham…”
It makes me sad I know the song, still.
Did you stop reading when you hit the word cheating? I very much disapprove. My opinion shouldn’t matter to the Venezuelan population, if they want a new leader, make it happen.
IT IS NOT THE US OR ANY OTHER NATIONS BUSINESS
Maybe read the whole comment before writing a rant agreeing with me. Not part of the point im arguing either, but he got into power legally, he stayed ther illegally. But thats still uptothe Venezuelan to deal with.
